Welcome from mentor

Hi, Darklavalizard. I'm Qwyrxian, and I signed up to be the mentor for your group for Dr. Obar's class. If you have any questions, you can post them here or on my talk page. Let me know when your group starts working on the project; personally, I'd recommend starting to gather your information on a Sandbox page--that way, you can get it all in one place, even if it isn't organized or formatted yet. The topic looks interesting, and I think that there might just barely be enough info in reliable sources to make an article that can actually be added to Wikipedia. Again, I'm happy to help at any time, with this project or anything else about Wikipedia! Qwyrxian (talk) 23:32, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Moving the article in to mainspace

I wish you had asked me before moving the article into mainspace. I'm going to throw some tags on it, but you have a really fundamental problem--you haven't established the organization is notable (in the sense used by Wikipedia, which you can read about at WP:N). The sources you have don't support the claim that MAP is notable. The first source I can't read, but the information you've pulled from it seems to indicate the article doesn't actually discuss MAP in detail. The second source is probably not a reliable source, given that it's "news" published, not in a news sources, but on a business-to-business marketing company's page. The truth is, at this point, the article is almost eligible for speedy deletion, as it doesn't make any credible claims about the organization's importance. It almost certainly would not survive an Article for deletion discussion. I'm not going to speedy it (although someone else might), but if enough supporting material isn't added within the next few days, I may nominate it for deletion (that would result in a 7 day discussion about whether or not the group is notable). For now, I'm just going to add some maintenance templates.

Please let me know how I can help. While I understand that this is a class project, that fact doesn't override the need for articles to meet certain standards to remain in the encyclopedia. Qwyrxian (talk) 03:00, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Overclockers logo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Overclockers logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude2 (talk) 05:27, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

License tagging for File:MediaAccessProject.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:MediaAccessProject.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 07:07, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

File:MediaAccessProject.jpg needs authorship information.

Dear uploader:

The media file you uploaded as File:MediaAccessProject.jpg appears to be missing information as to its authorship (and or source), or if you did provide such information, it is confusing for others trying to make use of the image.

It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.

Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided),authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).

If you created this media yourself, please consider explicitly including your user name, for which:{{subst:usernameexpand|Darklavalizard}} will produce an appropriate expansion,

or the {{own}} template..

If you have any questions please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:34, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

File:MediaAccessProject.jpg missing description details

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as:

• File:MediaAccessProject.jpg

is missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors make better use of the image, and it will be more informative to readers.

If the information is not provided, the image may eventually be proposed for deletion, a situation which is not desirable, and which can easily be avoided.

If you have any questions, please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Theo's Little Bot (error?) 08:31, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
